My #RasberryPi arrived today! Still deciding on a project for it, and suggestions welcome!
#PiProjects
@afarian are you leaning more in the direction of software projects or things incorporating external hardware / sensors / outputs?
i've been working on the latter problem for my job lately. i have drawers full of interesting hardware that can interface with the pi pretty easily now. i'm still waiting for a pi-specific project to emerge that actually seems interesting enough to do on my own time.
@afarian
You could create a Mastodon bot who suggests everyday a random Raspberry Pi project.
@afarian Monitor your homes temperature with a temperature sensor
@afarian Install a #funkwhale instance for you and your friends
@hinterwaeldler I've never heard of funkwhale, I'll check it out!
@afarian I've not used #funkwhale yet, and I don't know if it works on a #raspberrypi. But the project idea sound so cool!
@hinterwaeldler @afarian it _should_ work on a raspberry pi!
@afarian maybe a NextCloud instance?
@victorhck I'm leaning towards an instance of some sort!
@afarian how about running your own server / private cloud ⛅
@ninja yep, that's probably the direction I'm going to head.
